Visa & Entry

Ethiopian passport holders need a visa to enter Brazil. Apply for a VITUR (tourist visa) through the Brazilian embassy or consulate. There is no Brazilian embassy in Addis Ababa, so you will need to apply at the nearest one, which is in Nairobi or Cairo. The tourist visa costs USD 80 and allows a stay of up to 90 days.

Required documents include a completed online application via the Brazilian e-Consular portal, a passport valid for at least 6 months, a recent photo, proof of financial means (bank statements), round-trip flight booking, and proof of accommodation. Processing takes 5 to 15 business days.

Yellow fever vaccination is required for travelers arriving from Ethiopia. Carry your ICVP. Brazil takes this seriously and checks at immigration. The 90-day stay can be extended once at a Federal Police office in Brazil for another 90 days within the same 12-month period. The extension fee is BRL 204.
